To me it is just another evaluator trying to micro-manage his officials instead of knowing what is and is not in the Mechanics Manual.

There are a lot of things we do that is not in the Manual (or any manual for that matter). But this sounds silly as what difference does it make what you say. You blow the whistle that should be enough to show strength.
